ANNIVERSARY CARD

It is our wedding anniversary tomorrow, 41 years, how time flies, and also my birthday, here is the card I have made for my hubby, following the criteria for LESS IS MORE CHALLENGE wk 10, a 1 layer card with sentiment as the focus.

I had to be very quick adding this card to my blog, otherwise I would have been very tempted to  keep adding to it, still don't find less is more, easy. The sentiment is computer generated, as I don't have a fancy anniversary stamp. Anyway of to sit in the garden for a bit, hope  the weather stays good for tomorrow, off for a trip to the lake district, and maybe i'll find a craft shop!!

Thanks for taking the time to visit my blog, love reading your comments, Irene

A TOUCH OF RED

Here is a quick card for the less is more challenge a touch of red

I am sending this card to a friend who has just lost her brother, the image is a digi fromdigistamp boutique printed straight onto the card and sentiment added in my craft studio, all 4 sides of the card have been scored, although it doesn't show up very well in the picture, and red pearls have been added to the center of the flowers, a really simple card, but very effective.

Thanks for stopping by my blog, all comments are appreciated, Irene

Well i've actually done it ,made a card for theLess is More Challenge it's not my normal style, but this week there was a sketch to follow, so i've had a go, hope its okay
  

I've embossed the bottom of the card with a craft concepts folder called gem flourish, and embossed two lines above this,  added three poppies from WOC,and the sentiment was printed straight onto the card.
Hope it is okay,

COMMENTS

I t appears that people can't leave comments on my last card, don't know why, so if you would like to leave me a comment on my LOTV  card please leave it after this post Thank you Irene

JUST A QUICK POST

just want to add this card, before my computer goes to the repair shop, to have my SD card removed from the CD slot, yes I am stupid! but it appears I am not alone, as seems to be quite common. Any way here is my card

I really love these backing papers,they are from Botanical collection paperstack from Prima, and I bought them from the show at Harrogate at the weekend, image is LOTV coloured with copics, and the flowers are new, also from Harrogate, and I have added stickles to them. I am entering this card in
LOTV sketch challenge
